Seating Set: 40 Seating Chips + 4 color coordinated buttons

I had approached OldWestPokerSupplies about doing some custom seating chips and matching buttons. I've seen others elsewhere here that just aren't my flavor. In any event, there are specific minimums that he would like to stick by and I would like to stick to those minimums

Plan is to do 43mm ceramic chips for the seating chips themselves. Buttons will be of the the 60mm variety. This project is extremely self explanatory. Other option, if it pleased everyone, would be to do octagonal 43.5mm chips, which would clearly require a design tweak, but one I'm willing to do.

If we got 5 people, that may be enough, but since the buttons are min. 10, maybe that's per color? Can we get interest for 10 sets of these at ~$50 each set?

(43mm chips are .70 per chip, buttons are 4.59)



UPDATE: Gene is doing these. Updated Art below.

Buttons I ordered were a minimum of 10 but with 2 designs so basically 5 minimum per artwork which means 20 minimum for your 4 above.

Also worth mentioning, I'm willing to work with you guys on design as well if you don't like what I've come up with here.

The main thing I really wanted was the dealer buttons to be white with the accent color unlike the offering from ABC ... I just don't like their buttons nor the font used for the number on the chips.

FYI. Gene at ABC did a full custom set of 4 tables and dealer buttons using artwork I sent for the same price as his stock option and they are Fawesome! So you don't have to do a groupbuy to get full custom at a decent price.

I'm sure old west would work with you as well but wanted to tell a different story on behalf of Gene at ABC.

Thanks and I did notice that. I didn't see anyone, though, who changed the way both sides of the seat chips looked too. I guess I'm OK with them aside from the font used for the number and the coloration of the button.

I was also trying to keep my whole purchase in house at OldWest - but if push comes to shove, I may have to go with Gene. Looks like there's a serious lack of interest on these.

I am trying to get Gene's attention to see if he would produce these as one-offs for us. Most people "customizing" are only customizing the back of the chip, not the face with the number on it.

Gene customized both sides for me no problem. Try contacting him through his web site ABC Gifts and Awards | Poker Trophies | Custom Poker Chips.

I flagged him down. Thanks to everyone for your help. He's going to make these for me, and while the art has changed from the above (plus MUCH more highly customized), if anyone else wanted to get some made, I'd gladly make the art available.
